Summary

Photographs of the Coorong, taken by Ross Bray. Some of the images (in the number range 1-236) were taken during a trip when Bray was filming with John Sever for Channel 7 in 1981 for 'the State Affair Coorong Special'; others were taken during a second shoot re banding pelicans in 1983. (The book 'The Coorong', edited by John Noye, was used for reference purposes during these shoots.) Other photos were taken during trips made by Bray 'just to experience the wilderness and to photograph it'. See 'contents' for details of selected images. (Those not listed and digitised are near duplicates of those selected, or of a general nature. Access to these can be arranged by appointment.).
